    Agency Background The major priorities of the Department ofHousing and Community Development are toincrease home-ownership opportunities andexpand economic development efforts throughoutthe city, and to ensure that the department’s manyhousing and economic development programsintegrate with other city and private resources toachieve greater stabilization of neighborhoods. Inhousing, DHCD increases home-ownershipopportunities by offering financial assistance tolow- and moderate-income residents. In addition,the department supports efforts to maintainaffordable housing opportunities and promotes thepurchase and renovation of aging and abandonedhouses. The department’s economic developmentactivities focus on generating new business oppor-tunities that create jobs and give residents easyaccess to quality retail products and services.

    DHCD is the recipient of federal entitlementgrants that enable it to fulfill its mission. Thegrants are provided by the U.S. Department ofHousing and Urban Development (HUD), inresponse to the District’s submission of a five-yearConsolidated Plan—a single comprehensive docu-ment concerning housing and community devel-opment needs, strategies, and action plans for theDistrict. These entitlement grants include:• Community Development Block Grant

    (CDBG)• Home Investment Partnership (HOME)• Emergency Shelter Grant (ESG) • Housing Opportunities for Persons with

    AIDS (HOPWA), which is managed out ofthe Department of Health

    ProgramsThe department’s main programs fall into five cat-egories (figure DB0-1).

    Homebuyer Assistance and HousingRecycling and Preservation promotes new home-ownership and protects existing ownershipthroughout most of the residential areas of the city.Home-buyer assistance is provided through theHousing Purchase Assistance Program, the HomeOwnership Developers Incentive Fund, whichhelps lower the cost of certain newly constructedhousing units for eligible purchasers, and theTenant’s Apartment Purchase Program. Recyclingof abandoned and vacant housing is conductedthrough the Homestead Housing PreservationProgram. Assistance for preservation of homeownership is provided through the Single FamilyResidential Rehabilitation Program and the SeniorCitizen Home Repair and Improvement Program.

    HUD offers a variety of grant programs topublic and nonprofit housing developers toencourage home ownership of public housing andhousing that is owned by local governments or hasbeen obtained through foreclosure under federalinsurance programs. Funds provide assistance forboth planning and development of affordablehousing for lower-income households.

    Affordable Housing Production supports theDistrict of Columbia’s commitment to increase theamount of affordable housing available through con-struction of new housing and preservation of aginghousing stock.The thrust to produce affordablehousing, through its creation and renovation, is partof an overall effort to maintain healthy and viableneighborhoods for all District residents, includingsegments of the population with special needs.
